Moisture????

OK, so... can anyone tell me what they are using to moisturize their locs??? I am using a basic conditioner that I put in a spray bottle, diluted it with water, and then a touch of peppermint and tea tree oil. I am hoping this will do the trick, but I just don't want my locs getting toooo dry. I want them to lock and all, but a sista has limits!

Something funky to celebrate 7 months





I was bored and felt like trying something, so I asked my loctitian to just give me something simple but funky. This is what she came up with in 5 minutes, literally. Not bad V, not bad at all.

Just a snap shot before the reti




Yes, I admit it, I have been gone for a while. That will change especially since my camera is back in commission. Anyhow, tomorrow marks 7 months for me. My hair is doing its thing, and I can see that ultimately I am going to have 'big' hair like I did when I wore my hair out. That is fine with me because I like it. My hair is healthy, I feel good about, and it is seriously growing even though I had those ends cut (may they rest in peace. Here are a few pics I just took. Hope you guys are doing wonderful!

Just a quick post


I FINALLY got my camera issue resolved, so I am officially back in business. Usually I would post every reti, but not having a camera put a damper on my parade. Any who, just a quick pic to show. It's not the best picture as I have done nothing with it. Just showing how thick it is. My hair is doing its thing. I realize that my hair is getting back to the way it use to be before all of the pressing. I forgot just how thick my hair really is. I am happy for that because I really didn't want to have tiny locs, but I didn't want huge locks either. Definitely need to do something to it, and a nice grooming wouldn't hurt either. Until then...
